Des. 136(12), 120301 (Dec 01, 2014) (2 pages)doi: 10.1115/1.4028940The past two decades have seen a significant shift in perspective on engineering design, from the view that design is a matter of problem solving to the view that it is decision making. This shift was encouraged by the ABET 2000 standards, defining […]

ROBUST DESIGN FOR MULTIVARIATE QUALITY CHARACTERISTICS USING EXTREME VALUE DISTRIBUTION
Robust design makes product performance stable under variations and noises in the environment. So the product can work robustly even in harsh conditions.
MACHINE LEARNING ALGORITHMS FOR RECOMMENDING DESIGN METHODS
Designers use specific methods to discern people’s needs and how to best create products or services that meet those needs.
BIO-INSPIRED DESIGN: AN OVERVIEW INVESTIGATING OPEN QUESTIONS FROM THE BROADER FIELD OF DESIGN-BY-ANALOGY
Bio-inspired design is a cutting edge field of inquiry and practice, founded by thinkers such as Steele (bionics, 1950s), Schmitt (biomimetics, 1950s), and French (biologically inspired design, 1988).
GUEST EDITORIAL: SPECIAL ISSUE ON BIOLOGICALLY INSPIRED DESIGN
11/1/2014 Authors: Ashok K. Goel, Daniel A. McAdams and Robert B. Stone J. Mech. Des. 136(11), 110301, Paper No: MD-14-1554; doi: 10.1115/1.4028572 In 2011 and 2012, we organized two workshops on computer-aided bio-inspired design sponsored by the United States National Science Foundation (NSF). These workshops brought together a few dozen leading researchers in computational methods and tools for biologically inspired design,1 and […]
